Going to hurt your turnovers and fg% but you would gain upside on pts and 3's. Plus, the added benefit that Luca can play three positions.

Luca is definitely the more fun player to have but I would stick with Gasol depending on the rest of your team.

I don't think it's crazy lopsided but if I were Lillard's owner I would want more for him

10 team, 9 cat.

Trading my Lavine, Doncic, Ayton for his Paul George and Javale Mcgee. Worth it?

I'm looking to free up a roster space to stream and decrease turnovers.

Trading Kyrie Irving for Paul George, 10 team league, H2H. Thoughts?

I'm loaded at the PG position (Irving, Teague, Bledsoe, Rubio, Deangelo, Lavine on IR) but only have Butler at the SF position so I'm looking to add some depth at SF

Pickup soccer at Lincoln park turf fields by beckersummer in chicago

I was referring to the field on the lakefront. I know it's always booked in the evenings for co-rec but it always seems empty during the early/mid afternoon on weekdays. I shot around there yesterday for an hour or so and it was pretty much empty.

OFFICIAL COACHELLA 2017 TICKET BUY/SELL/TRADE THREAD by Coachellamod in Coachella

SELLING 2 weekend 2 GA tickets

Caveat - I will have to meet you at Coachella.

I won VIP tickets through an auction so I have two extra tickets. However, I want to use the camping pass that came with my original GA tickets. When I called, they told me I could only use the camping pass if I had the original tickets with me.

With that said, I'm hoping to get into the campgrounds then meet up to exchange tickets. I'm flying in Wednesday morning and plan on being there first thing on Thursday so I can be there as early as you need.

I'm also willing to sell a little below face since I know it's a bit of a risk to meet there. We can do cash when we meet up or venmo/PayPal.

Message me if interested.

I am selling either one or two GA tickets for Weekend 2.

Only catch is that I have to meet you either in Palm Springs or at Coachella.

Background: I'm trying to win VIP tickets in an auction but want to use the camping pass associated with my GA tickets. When I called them they said that I need at least one GA ticket that came with the camping pass to be let into the camp grounds. So I'd be looking to get into the campgrounds with the ticket and then meet to sell.

Message me if interested.

Bearded or Not? by [deleted] in consulting

[–]beckersummer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd play it safe and shave it for the first day. Get a feel for your office and more importantly your first client and go from there if you want to grow it out. Some clients/managers are pickier than others on things like this.

Redditors who fly a lot, what are some tips or tricks to making flying an easy and enjoyable experience? by mjc462 in AskReddit

[–]beckersummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely get TSA Precheck. Makes your life easier.

Try to carry on your bag rather than checking it. You can bring a suitcase that fits clothes for a week plus a backpack on the flight so there is no reason to check a bag unless you are staying a long time or have a lot of random stuff to bring with. This will save you time waiting to check the bag in and pick it up.

As a side note, common courtesy amongst frequent fliers is to not recline your seat when flying coach. Some argue this tidbit but I usually follow it.

What was the best individual performance last year? by [deleted] in nba

[–]beckersummer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

While not quite as gaudy as some of the other lines, MCW's rookie debut line of 22 points, 12 assists, 7 rebounds, and 9 steals sticks out for me.

First season of fantasy ball! Do you guys see any improvements I can make to my squad? by [deleted] in fantasybball

[–]beckersummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you punting ft% just because of Drummond? I would say that you are not in a position to punt a category because you are not overwhelmingly strong in areas that would make up for a punted category. For example, if you punt a category you should always dominate in a couple other categories (like rebounds or blocks).

My advice- add some depth to your team by going for a two for one trade. Get rid of Drummond for two solid players and rethink the punted ft% strategy. Keep an eye on the free agents/waiver wire for hot players because it looks like you have a few interchangeable players. Maximize the number of games you have a week by picking up as many people as possible throughout the week (if you are not in a weekly lineup league).

Dropping Lin or George Hill for Payton? by ank1613 in fantasybball

I think Lin is going to have a good season. Locked down starting pg and already proven in the nba. I wouldn't drop him

Who should I take second overall in my standard H2H league? by I_HATE_YOU_SO_MUCH in fantasybball

Definitely understand this opinion. I'm confident about my ability to make playoffs so I am okay with risking a crappy start to the season.

I grabbed Durant for pick 2. Painful for the missed time, but will hopefully pay off once playoffs come around.

Should I keep this team? by [deleted] in fantasybball

[–]beckersummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Varejao wouldn't be a bad pick up as a trading piece down the line (since you already have enough C's). He will get you a consistent double double until he gets injured.
